Jeremy Love Swift

Jeremy Love Swift, 47, passed away peacefully at his home in Westminster, Colorado, on March 13, 2025. A beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend, Jeremy lived a life defined by compassion, intellect, humor, and an unwavering commitment to others.

Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Jeremy was the cherished son of Carol Hinshaw Swift and David Henry Swift and Susan Swift. He was a devoted brother to Jason, Joshua, Justin, and Erin Bloom. His legacy continues through his 11 adoring nieces and nephews, as well as extended family and friends across Colorado, Kansas City, and around the world.

A gifted student, Jeremy graduated from Blue Valley High School in 1996, delivering the student commencement address. He went on to earn his degree in International Studies at Pittsburg State University, completing additional majors and minors. Jeremy deepened his global understanding through immersive studies in Spain at the University of Salamanca and in Guatemala with a host family in Antigua.

After college, Jeremy taught English to university students in Shanghai, China. He held a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and approached life with discipline, excellence, and heart.

Jeremy earned his law degree Magna Cum Laude from Syracuse University School of Law. He was named to the prestigious Order of the Coif and served on the Law Review. He clerked for Judge Elizabeth Brown at the U.S. Bankruptcy Court before launching a distinguished litigation career. As a shareholder at Treece Alfrey Musat and later a partner at Freeman Mathis & Gary, Jeremy was nationally recognized for his work in insurance coverage litigation. He was honored by Super Lawyers and Best Lawyers in America and served in executive leadership with The Harmonie Group.

Outside the courtroom, Jeremy was equally extraordinary. He was a dedicated marathon runner, a published novelist (under the name Steven T. Stevenson), and a self-taught musician. In just three years, he learned guitar, bass, and drums—mastering over 30 songs and performing some, like “Like a Stone,” “Zombie,” and “Back in Black,” on all three instruments.

Jeremy gave endlessly to those around him. He lived with quiet strength, kindness, and a sharp wit that brightened every room. His legacy of generosity, brilliance, and love will remain with us always.

A memorial service will be held on April 5th at 2:00 p.m. at Church of the Resurrection, 13720 Roe Ave., Leawood, Kansas.
